The man hadn’t realized what was happening when a blade light flashed past him. He looked down at the line of blood on his body and then collapsed.
“Bastard!” The other four men and women shouted angrily after a brief moment of shock. They all charged at Billy, each unleashing their full strength.
At that moment, a purple figure shot out from Billy’s body-it was Purple Spirit. She had completely refined the Spiritual Line Origin in the Silent Ruins Sky Realm during this period, greatly increasing her strength. The opponents, who were only in the early to mid stages of the Prime Source Realm, were no match for her.
One of the elders didn’t even see Purple Spirit clearly before a purple flame condensed into a sharp sword and slashed across his neck. His head flew into the air, his face full of horror. The other three were also startled by the sudden appearance of Purple Spirit and hesitated for a moment.
In the next instant, Purple Spirit’s purple sword slashed towards an old woman. The old woman’s pupils contracted sharply; she quickly raised her hand to block, sending a mark towards the purple sword. However, with her skills, she couldn’t possibly stop Purple Spirit’s attack. The sword tore through her defense and pierced her heart, cutting her body in two.
After killing two people in one move, Purple Spirit didn’t pause and swiftly moved towards the remaining two.
“Damn it!” The two cursed simultaneously and quickly dodged to the side, knowing they were no match for Purple Spirit.
“Weren’t you trying to kill Billy? Why are you running now?” Purple Spirit said as she chased after them.
Meanwhile, Billy had already reached Neil Armstrong. “I didn’t expect you to make the Spiritual Line Origin recognize you as its master. Quite surprising!”
Neil Armstrong looked at Billy. “She must be your greatest reliance. Unfortunately, she can’t save you today…”
Before he could finish speaking, Billy had already made his move. A curved blade light flashed past.
“Hmm?” Neil Armstrong frowned and grabbed at the blade light, causing the void to twist.
The blade light exploded, and the powerful shockwave sent Billy flying hundreds of meters away. “I’ve given you many chances, but you insisted on courting death. As you wish!” Neil Armstrong’s voice rang out as he flashed towards Billy.
Billy, still unsteady on his feet, couldn’t dodge in time and was sent flying another kilometer. “Hmm?” Seeing that Billy was unharmed after taking his attack head-on, Neil Armstrong showed a trace of surprise.
Although he hadn’t used his full strength in that move, he was confident it could severely injure even a mid-to-late stage Prime Source Realm opponent. Yet Billy, who was only at the mid-stage Supreme Ancestry Realm, was unscathed? His physical resilience was astonishing!
Neil Armstrong didn’t ponder for long. With a slight twist of his eyes, he charged at Billy again.
Just as he was halfway there, a sharp blade light carrying destructive energy descended from the sky, tearing a rift in the void. Heaven Killer! Sensing the power of this strike, Neil Armstrong’s pupils contracted slightly as he unleashed his full strength in a punch.
The punch collided with the blade light, producing a deafening explosion that caused the void to collapse. Meanwhile, Billy was sent flying two or three kilometers away, spitting blood into the air, his face pale. Although his defensive ability was formidable, Neil Armstrong’s full-strength punch was not something simple.
Of course, Billy only suffered minor injuries that didn’t affect his combat ability. On the other hand, Neil Armstrong wasn’t unscathed either after taking Billy’s full-strength strike; he retreated four or five hundred meters with a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth.
He realized he had underestimated Billy! That punch should have severely injured even a ninth-rank Prime Source Realm expert, yet Billy only suffered minor injuries. Moreover, Billy’s blade technique was so powerful that even he was injured!
Now he understood what Billy’s reliance was! “To make the Nine Dragons Cauldron recognize you as its master, you indeed have some skill!” After a brief adjustment, Neil Armstrong hovered not far from Billy.
“As a steward of the Heaven Alliance, is this all you’ve got?” Billy wiped the blood from his mouth and spoke calmly.
“It’s not bad for young people to have confidence, but overconfidence is arrogance!” Neil Armstrong responded coolly. “If I’m not mistaken, that last strike should be your strongest card?”
“Objectively speaking, it was impressive but won’t save your life!”
“Don’t you know that talkative people die easily?” Billy retorted.
As he spoke, his aura surged again. His eyes narrowed as a black mist burst from his body and quickly spread around. At the same time, Billy’s hands moved rapidly in the void, creating dozens of afterimages.
In just a few moments, within a radius of tens of kilometers, strong winds howled and energy waves surged, darkening the sky slightly. Occasionally, skeletal images flashed in the void with hoarse roars echoing faintly, filling the area with an eerie chill.
Skybinder! This was Billy’s first time using Skybinder in battle; although he had only reached a minor achievement in its cultivation, he wanted to give it a try!
“The Demonic Clan actually taught you Skybinder?” Neil Armstrong frowned deeply after a while.
Without any hesitation, he turned and fled backward. As a steward of the Heaven Alliance, he naturally knew about Skybinder and its formidable power. Although Billy had only reached a minor achievement in its cultivation, Neil Armstrong already felt his mind being affected; staying longer would definitely slow his reactions.
Just as he turned around, Billy attacked. With his current cultivation level and the boost from Nether Wings, even Neil Armstrong’s teleportation speed couldn’t match his.
In the next moment, Billy appeared not far from Neil Armstrong and unleashed curved blade lights with continuous wrist movements.
“Get lost!” Neil Armstrong knew Billy’s intention-to trap him. As he spoke, countless fist shadows roared out, shattering all of Billy’s blade lights.
But what drove Neil Armstrong crazy was that Billy’s teleportation speed was too fast to catch. He couldn’t quickly defeat Billy either. Meanwhile, as Billy moved rapidly and continuously unleashed blade lights with his wild knife technique, it became difficult for Neil Armstrong to escape Skybinder’s domain.
As a result, within moments, Neil Armstrong’s reaction speed noticeably slowed by about twenty percent. Already slower than Billy’s teleportation speed by a fraction, he now found himself even more disadvantaged-only able to take hits!
Several times Billy’s blade lights reached him before he could react; when he tried to counterattack, he couldn’t even find Billy’s trace.
Under such circumstances, no matter how strong his combat ability or resilience was, he couldn’t withstand it.
After several rounds, multiple deep wounds appeared on his body, reducing his combat ability to seventy or eighty percent.
“Stop!” Neil Armstrong shouted after being sent flying another kilometer.
“I don’t want the Nine Dragons Cauldron or Heaven Book anymore; stop attacking me. I’ll leave immediately.”
